Persona 5
₱950

Persona 5 is a beloved JRPG that deals with teen angst and the corruption of the adult world. The story revolves around a person who is wrongfully accused of a crime committed by a powerful politician. He acquires a mysterious power that allows him to control powerful entities and traverse into the alter subconsciousness of corrupted people. 

One unique feature is that the game progresses through actual dates of the month and you have one year of in-game time to finish the whole game. It's up to you how you'll spend each day of the year, but there are also deadlines and special events that can only happen on certain dates. It challenges players to optimize their schedules and time management skills. 


As for the combat, it makes use of the typical turn-based action, however, unlike other JRPGS where everything's just a straightforward attack and gets the enemy to zero HP, Persona 5 actually has other gimmicks such as negotiating with enemies, holding them-up to threaten them, and even convincing them to join your team. 

Amidst the doom and gloom of the main story-line, players will also get to enjoy being a normal Japanese highschooler who goes on dates, plays arcades, fishing, doing part-time jobs, and many more. My favorite thing in the game is the funky music! I play it whenever I drive or just chill in the houseーit's nearly impossible not to bop to its amazing OST.
